Coping with the loss of a pet

[ThetaPrincess24]

I feel like a family member is gone with Buffy's loss. I felt the same way when our ten year old shih tzu Chelsea died in April of 2001. I still get upset thinking about Chelsea. Our other shih tzu, Hootie, who is 13 as well is also very sick. We think she is sick from being depressed from where she has gone blind.
